This is something for all the RC vehicle fans out there. This is a new 1:10 scale RC personal watercraft with simulated jet-drive. It is styled very similarly to the Sea-Doo RXT-X 300 and has a top speed of around 20kph from the brushless power system. The scale-realism is very good and it is great fun on open water. See it in detail below, including testing on a rocky mountain river:

A case in downtown San Francisco where a lady was waiting at a red light and a tow truck tried to take the car - driver and all....



This is one of those "wow, just wow" moments. Maybe he thought he was actually picking up a Waymo gone self-aware (it was behind the lady) and got the cars mixed up? Mmmm maybe not but the Waymo had other ideas and got outta Dodge quick smart....

"TowTrucker" channel is the best of the genre imo; he works in the less attractive parts of Atlanta, Georgia and no way I would want to do his job there. Good guy though.

The outfit on that new clip look like a bunch of chancers; charged with fraud and false imprisonment so obviously they were out to scam people. I have heard/seen tow truckers rock up and yank their mark at any opportune moment, so lifting someone's car when stuck in traffic is fair game if their name is on the list (in the US at least) but does look like attempted kidnapping in that video.

Roman Atkinson’s Driven Man.
Stumbled across this the other day, I remember watching it 30 odd years ago, interesting looking back on it now, the change in some attitudes, and reinforcing of others. Very funny in places piece from a proper petrol head.
